One of the greatest, most straightforward, warts-and-all documentaries ever
made about the rock life, "DiG!" digs into the uneasy alliance of two
bands  the Dandy Warhols and the Brian Jonestown Massacre  and the
love-hate relationship between the Dandys' Courtney Taylor and the BJM's
Anton Newcombe, observed over a period of seven years. Taylor and Newcombe
are respectively the leaders and creative directors of their respective
groups; they were fast friends, each expressing unabashed admiration for the
other's music. But their different career trajectories  the do-it-yourself
indie-rock route for the BJM and a major-label deal for the Dandys  and
changing fortunes created tension, discomfort and jealousy. Despite their
most fervent wishes, all parties learn that it's no easy task to
revolutionize rock music and have fun while doing it. Filmmaker Ondi Timoner
had the documentarian's equivalent of one of those all-access concert passes
and the patience to chronicle the years. The resulting footage includes lots
of music from both bands at recording sessions and live shows, inter- and
intra-band squabbles, off-stage tour escapades, brushes with the law, music-business
machinations and talking-head reflections by most of the involved parties. Extras
on the two-disc DVD set include two hours of previously
unreleased footage, three complete music videos by the Dandys, and three
extra live performances by the BJM.
